God safe us indeed
(But it’d be bad satire to repeat the joke)
The depth to which he has gone to illustrate what a simple /whoosh would a done is part of the sad tire no?
Jeebus that boy ain’t right

What part of deoxyribonucleic acid do you not understand?
Dungeons nucleic Dragons
This new craze they call “rock nucleic roll” is driving the country’s youth wild!
Oh, yeah, that’s fair.
The elven part
What if I told you there’s another kind of DNA for which that statement is actually true?
Douglas Adams’ middle name was “Noel”, not “and”.
Should we point out that in this context it’s ‘save’, not ‘safe’? If you’re going to correct someone’s spelling, make sure your own is impeccable.
Nah. It’s engagement bait, plane and simple
It works too well… plain and simple.
That missing period had better also have been intentional.
But how can you be sertain?
That’s the neet part. You can’t
I sea
Sayes the blind man.
Who pict up a hammer and saw.
Because hammer and siecle was taken
Says the fuck you guy.
I now.
The fact that that’s a thing is why I don’t use the more mainstream social media. Only Lemmy.
Its another classic case of Muphry’s Law.
Don’t you meen Murphy’s Law?
MUUUURPH!
you’re*
Youeu’re*

Lol. Wrong.
You’re* wrong.
When, as we all know, it stands for n-BOOOOOP
Deoxyribonucleic acid, for anyone wondering
Deoxyribo&ucleic acid, for anyone sophisticated
Deoxyriboanducleic acid, according to Shadow Radar.
God safe us
Well… deoxyribo and acid. The whole “n” is gone
Well, I’m pretty sure bacteria and others aren’t thrilled by the blatant and offensive pro-prokaryote bias on that name.
Yeah we don’t use the N word anymore.
Ucleic acid
New band name or refreshing treat?
Nobody decides
Wouldn’t it be Deoxyriboandacid?
Sometimes I take an andacid when my stomach hurts.
More acid ought to do the trick
Ah yes, cue Monocle’d Pooh!
Dicks n ass, for anyone wondering. It’s the male version of tna.
Sure that first one is plural?
It’s a gay term, and when gay men have sex, there is usually more than one dick. It’s a play on TNA, which is plural too.
There is a gay magazine called DNA, a play on the fact that it may be genetic. we all know what they really mean.
But, sure, in a straight monogamous relationship, there may be a singular. Broaden your mind to other possibilities.
Um ok… Then why is ass singular?
All asses are actually the same ass, travelling forward and backward through time.
It’s a collective noun
I think you mean deoxyribo and acid.
I have this acronym finder as a search engine shortcut in vomnibar. It never has what I’m looking for:
Department(al) Network Administrator Datanetwork Associates (Software) Does Not Apply
Did someone tell these vomnibar people that their name sounds like vomitbar
Or DRNA to anyone in the know.
I get mad every time I think about it that we don’t call it DRNA
It begins…
Nucleic isn’t a thing huh ? Can we send these people to a Gulag
Call the Marxists
“God safe us” - irony right there especially when critical of someone else’s use of an acronym perhaps one’s own grasp of the English language should be a little better!!!
God save us ….
May god shave us all.
Up yours Trebek!
Shave my wife, I’m goin’ down for the last time!
The amount of grammatical mistakes in your own comment is pretty ironic as well.
Muphry’s Law strikes again.
Excuse me, it’s Muphry’s Theory. It hasn’t been proven enough to be a scientific law.
Menzies’es Pretty Solid Hunch
I dont believe in Muphies Theory cause uts just a theory. I’ve done my own research and u ahoukd to.
Hehe I remember Muphies. That Kermit always got up to shenanigans!
I’m sure this comment can’t go wromg.
😆👌 fair enough
deleted by creator
Care to elaborate? I may have missed a comma here or there, but what else was wrong?
I mean your own spelling is rather atrocious - especially when devices tend to have a spell check; “Muphry”? Is he a distant cousin of Murphy perchance?
Oh and I use the Kings English here in my country, not “US English” ……
Oh my word, this was embarrassing for you. 😂 My spelling was absolutely perfect, you shmuck. No wonder you deleted it before I even saw the reply in my inbox.
Hardly embarrassing - you don’t seem to understand light hearted banter clearly….yes I was playing on Murphy/Muphry.
Geez straight to name calling though - classy 🙄
Have a nice life.
You’re right. The schmuck name calling was perhaps a bit harsh on you.
You were “playing” on Murphy/Muphry? What does that mean? It seems like you just didn’t know Muphry’s Law was a thing, and you tried to hang me for “misspelling” it, then you realized what it is and deleted the comment. But maybe I’m just assuming. 🤷♂️
I don’t know if you’re bantering, perhaps you are. I just have a hobby of shitting on people’s grammar that complain about other people’s grammar. It’s this Robin Hood type of feeling I get. I’m probably sick or something.
Take care!
Well then use this as a teaching moment and elaborate then?
I live in a country that uses the King’s English, not the American version so please enlighten me - I do enjoy learning.
But don’t say there are an amount of errors without even trying to quantify them….given the burden of proof rests with you.
Fair enough, let’s have at it, Mr. “King’s English”. (God, do you even hear how insufferably pretentious that sounds?)
Let’s start with the original comment. My edits in [brackets].
“God safe us” - [the] irony right there[… something? “is funny”? What about the irony? You have to finish the thought.][missing comma] especially when critical of someone else’s use of an acronym[comma] perhaps one’s own grasp of the English language should be a little better!!! [Overuse of exclamation points, although one could argue the level of severity in the contents of your message…]
God save us …. [space between “us” and the ellipsis"; and an extra period after the ellipsis]
Next comment!
Well then[missing comma] use this as a teaching moment and elaborate[missing comma; also another “then”? Then then then then.] then?
I live in a country that uses the King’s English[pretentious af but nothing wrong here], not the American version[missing comma] so please enlighten me - [hyphen instead of en dash] I do enjoy learning. [Good, you’re learning right now.]
But don’t say there are [“is an amount”, probably? I don’t know what the King says, but that’s what I would say] an amount of errors without even trying to quantify them….given [again, ellipsis with an extra period; also the weird use of an ellipsis here – it should be a comma] the burden of proof rests with you.
Did you learn something?
Isn’t the first mistake simply him using the sentence to declare there is irony? How is that an incomplete sentence?
Could you clarify? Do you mean to say it’s incomplete or actually complete?
I meant to say that part is already a complete sentence.
Now, I’m not as much of a grammar nerd as I’d like to be, but from what I understand, “irony right there” isn’t a complete sentence, or barely even a complete clause. It’s just a few words that should be part of a clause.
Maybe someone could fill in the grammatical details here, or prove me wrong.
There’s no formal rule, but adjectives can function as verbs in day to day English. <Subject> <adjective> <object> can mean the same thing as <subject> make <object> <adjective>.
However, we all know she made a typo while criticising someone else’s understanding of words
Aka chrolling for clickbate.
Whoooosh
I don’t know what y’all are talking about. Personally, I enjoy Tits Nucleic Ass.
Science jargon has always sounded so impressive until I took anatomy.
for example, the big hole in the bottom of your skull (where the spinal chord passes through) is called the “foramen magnum” which is Latin for ‘big hole’.
Unlike the cowards who hide their stupid names with latin, computer scientists will straight up call something a ‘fat pointer’.
Is it jargon or just a different language
Scientists use one to pretend the other
You gotta mix Greek and Latin to make it sound
cool.
I recently learned that mastodon (the animal) literally means breast tooth, because some thought their teeth (or tusks?) looked, well, breasty?
Get this. You have a structure in your brain called the “mammillary bodies”. It’s because it looks like a pair of tits.
